The rotary energy recovery device (RERD) is integral in reducing energy consumption in desalination processes. The absence of a physical piston in RERD ducts allows salinity transfer from the brine to the seawater stream, which reduces RERD efficiency. T...

One alternative measure to minimise the stormwater runoff volume and its pollutants and reduce impervious areas is to use permeable pavement. However, due to weak mechanical performance under heavy-load traffic related to fatigue resistance, porous mixtu...
